I need to back up an Oracle Database without stopping it, can RMAN be used for this?

If so, could someone give an example of how to do this?

Regards

Hi,

Yes, you can use RMAN to perform on-line database backups if and only if your database is in ARCHIVELOG mode. See the Oracle backup and Recover FAQ (www.orafaq.com/faqdbabr.htm) for more details and examples.

Best regards.

Thanks for the reply Frank.

Is there a way to see if a database is in ARCHIVELOG mode through SQLPlusW or SQL Navigator?

Regards,

Andrew

Hi Frank,

You can backup the database without shutting down the database with the help of RMAN. Mail me to have the scripts.

Thanks,
Guru.

Hi,

Do a select from v$database. Example:

SQL> SELECT log_mode FROM v$database;

LOG_MODE
------------
ARCHIVELOG

Best regards.
